> It is common, but still feels out of place for a psychiatric disorder. Probably a result of there being a couple conflicting ways of looking at them: there's the "it's part of who you are (or I am)" perspective—so, an identity thing—and the "psychiatric diseases are just diseases like any other (so shouldn't be stigmatized any more than a broken arm would be)" perspective. Adhering to the latter, this kind of phrasing is exactly what's desired—writing about psychiatric diseases the same way we'd write about any other disease. Favoring the former, it could come off as insulting.
